Abstract: Turkey has not been indifferent to these developments in the world and has benefited from these positive externalities by supporting the manufacturing sector with various instruments. One of these positive externalities is employment growth. Positive effects in technology and production methods have not completely eliminated the risks and hazards that employees face at work. Therefore, occupational health and safety is an issue that needs to be addressed meticulously by all actors in working life. The public, employers, employees, non-governmental organizations and trade unions in working life and local authorities have taken important steps on the subject. However, occupational accidents continue to occur for various reasons. In this study, occupational accidents resulting in injury of manufacturing sector employees in Amasya Province were examined. By focusing on the accidents in the metal sector and garment sector, which are the sub-branches of the manufacturing sector where most occupational accidents occur, it is aimed to help the occupational health and safety measures to be taken by employers, insured employees and other stakeholders operating in Amasya Province and thus the city economy.
